103. 1. Delete both "the". 2. Add "But..." and delete "too". 3. He will lead the soldiers by (or "to"?) the Euphrates. 4. "... the hoplites (that were) with..."
6. I think it means "They will hold the Persians under guard". 9. Or "He was pursuing". 10. Add "But" and delete "also".

117. 1."You" (plural) 2. He had freed.

119. into the sea : "up to" the sea. 4. Add "But..." and delete "also" 6. ... the soldiers to sacrifice. 7. in the country : some sort of "against". 8. the oaths : "their oaths". 9. among : "against" or something (the meaning is that Cyrus' collected soldiers will be led "against" barbarians)
